Arlene Cleary

A retelling of snow white. There was a lot of unexplained aspects of the world (ie. Creatures mentioned frequently but never explained) and a lot of made up terminology that was just a twist on what we use IRL (ie. Octovus, tricks-treaters, and babchats on the Babbage-net.) Lots of magical aspects that aren't very well explained either; basically, a rescued private school orphan goes through harrowing events to discover her past, with help from her people while struggling to feel like she belongs

Snarky, but likable, strong female character learning how to accept who she is and fit in with her peers.
